Stranded 2
« on: May 11, 2008, 03:15:00 pm »
Ok, so there's an FPS out there revolving around acquiring food/shelter, and surviving on an island.

The dev team seems to want it to be easily scriptable. Anyone else encountered this game? It seems like a good modder could make something interesting of it.

With a hammer, the player can access a build menu(requiring rocks/sticks/logs/rope/etc.), and continue to develop their fort/skills. Tools and such are made from composite materials, kind of like in "schiffbruch".

Edit: Google Stranded 2 for link.

I used to do some small modding for it, someone made a mod that stole most of the other mods people made on another forum and released it, extension mod or something.

I didn't much care for it when I played. It just seemed poorly done. Granted, it may have improved over the past year, but I haven't exactly been keeping tabs on it.

When I played, I don't believe there were any actual tools. Therefore, you were mercilessly slaughtered with no chance of survival  when you run across a lion or an armed native. That's another point I didn't like. Climbing trees by repeatedly jumping into them so you can safely sleep just seems poorly done. That's not mentioning that once you get up there, the only way down is to let gravity take over and take damage as a result.

Er... Now that I look at the screens, maybe I was playing an early version of Stranded 1 or something.

Mep, you most likely did, every time I went near Stranded I I got lost as hell.
Also I was working on a Stranded II thread for SA, FP and Bay12 but never got around to it, I'm finishing it now and will post it soon.

Just started playing.  It's awesome, I got chased by a lion, jumped into the water to escape, started laughing at how it couldn't swim, and then lost almost all of my health to a piranha.  What was he thinking?  I dropped his punka**, beastin' on me like dat.
